T1 entered the match against Nongshim RedForce on the match day of February 20 (Vietnam time) in the framework of the LCK Spring 2022 with the goal of winning. First, to open the second leg smoothly, and second, certainly to fulfill the goal of 10 consecutive wins that the team set when preparing to face Gen.G Esports a few weeks ago. .

However, an NS with the strongest lineup has proved that they are not an “easy” name for T1. In game 1, the two teams had a rather tight match and the game progress was also quite slow. However, with the Soul of the Wind Dragon, T1 is quite a lot ahead of NS in terms of advantages. Although for NS to get the first Baron, Faker and his teammates still deployed the game as they wanted. T1 had the 2nd Baron and the Elder Dragon, thereby ending the game with a 1-0 victory.

But in the 2nd game, NS suddenly rose up while the T1 players played somewhat subjectively. In particular, if in game 1, Dread had a Hecarim that only dealt 800 damage, then in game 2, he was the MVP of the game. Dread’s Sound Waves – Shadowless Charges helped NS recover the game. Especially the Gumayusi’s fury phase right near the Baron cave area has officially helped NS rise up compared to T1. In the end, the two teams had to bring the match to the decisive game 3.

Entering the decisive game 3, “grandson” Gumayusi suddenly turned on “immortal mode” and T1 won almost everything, from laning to getting into combat. After holding too many advantages, T1 no longer played negligently like in game 2. The decisive fight at the Dragon cave in the 27th minute that made 5 NS members lie down also ended the hope of this team. T1 officially has the 10th consecutive victory in the LCK Spring 2022.

With this victory, T1 had a good start to the second leg. At the same time, Faker and his teammates are also showing how good their performance and bravery are because this is not the first time, T1 was equalized but still won the decisive game. In addition, Gumayusi is increasingly proving that he and Keria are really the strongest bot pair in the LCK, even in the world at the moment. If they maintain their current good form, even after the group stage, there will still be playoffs, but it can be considered that T1 is touching a hand to the LCK Spring 2022 championship.
